Why are my investments fluctuating so much?

We understand you’re concerned about your investments, especially considering recent market volatility and uncertainty. 

 

Here’s how inflation is impacting your investments and causing them to fluctuate: 

• In the context of rising inflation, costs related to transport, salaries and raw materials also increase.  
• Businesses generate less profits. Less profits mean lower stock values. 
• War-related uncertainties undermine investor confidence. 
• Supply-chain difficulties lead to lower production and profits for businesses. 

 

Good to know 
Rising interest rates are another part of the equation: 

• Higher interest lower the earnings of indebted companies. Less earnings = lower stock values.
